It’s a shame. But the real decisions will be after Segways become available to anyone and are actually tried out in a few cities.
Eeek. Well, I’m glad they won’t ban them in LA. I want one those eventually…
To paraphrase someone, how people are so stupid there is beyond me, but it IS San Francisco.
/me laughs at all the dot coms in SF that bought them.
Oh wait… there aren’t any left, but I did just see Steve Wozniack riding one… hmm
Take the Segway and put it in my hummer.
Ok… I’ll stop.

No it was
Take the segway and put it in my hummer, ** then send my 2 new 17" wide-screen powerbooks and ship them to vegas**
I have that on tape. It was heaven, Woz, on a SEGWAY, talking about Macs AND FIRST. Wow. My heaven…

Agreed!
Can you post a copy of the little interview?
Did you notice that pat norton seemed a little POed about the whole thing?
BTW, I even named my dog after Steve Wozniak

I’ll see what I can do Matt.
BTW, I sent you a PM, read it.
Netscape has a poll on their home page.
I found this and just need to show everyone:
San Francisco is a not a city you would want to ride a segway in. If you have been there and seen the hills first hand you know what I’m talking about.
I don’t think they should have BANNED it though, but I wouldn’t own one there. Public transport there is awesome.
Man they ban eveything in San Fan… LOL go ped’s skateboards and everything cool that helps a single person get around… 
Actually, gopeds are allowed on streets in San Francisco
